Pasadena Public Health (PPH) Building, located at 1845 N. Fair Oaks Avenue, to store Central Library's historic archival book collection.

The project scope of work includes converting the 1,435-square-foot unused laboratory space in the basement of the Public Health building into usable storage space for an estimated duration of five years, until Central Library undergoes the necessary earthquake retrofit repairs and re-opens. The tenant improvements include removal of the former laboratory's cabinetry; modifications to the existing electrical and plumbing systems; and upgrades to the HVAC system. In addition, shelving systems will be purchased and installed under this contract.

Sourcewell is a public government agency created specifically by the Minnesota legislature as a local unit of government (under Minnesota Constitution, article XII, section 3). Sourcewell operates as a service cooperative and acts as a national municipal contracting agency which establishes and provides nationally leveraged and competitively solicited construction contracts that can be utilized by member agencies such as the City of Pasadena. On September 12, 2023, Sourcewell issued a Notice of Solicitation for Proposals for Indefinite Delivery-lndefinite Quantity Construction Contracts. Forty-six submissions were received and evaluated by the Sourcewell selection committee. Submissions were evaluated based on a responsive bid, lowest overall cost and competitive range for their adjustment factor. The process undergone by Sourcewell has resulted in competitive pricing. Mackone Development Inc. was awarded a contract on December 6, 2023.

On April 9, 2024, Gordian, acting as a program administrator for Sourcewell, submitted Mackone Development, Inc.'s proposal for the Public Health Building Tenant Improvements project. Mackone Development, Inc., located in Los Angeles, has agreed to extend the contract prices, terms, and conditions under Sourcewell Contract CA-R8-GB-101723-MDI to the City.

The proposed contract fully complies with the Competitive Bidding and Living Wage Ordinances. The contractor has indicated the awarding of this contract will result in no new hires to the present workforce. In accordance with the Local Preference provisions of the contract, the contractor is encouraged to recruit Pasadena residents initially and to give them preference, if all other factors are equal, for any new positions generated from this contract.

The contract will be set up as follows:

Base Bid

Contract Not-to-Exceed Amount

$ 294,776
A contingency of 12 percent is allocated to this contract given possible unforeseen conditions that may be encountered. It is anticipated that construction will begin in August 2024, and the work will be completed in October 2024.
